Primator – Stout
It would be wrong to say I got stuck in Prague for an extra week, it would be a bit like saying I came second in the prize draw and only won the Porsche. It would be safer to say that my return trip back to Chicago was delayed by a week and I had...
Pivovar Bakalá? – 555
Preamble: This is a trophy from the recent trip to Prague. Not a first choice beer for the simple reason that I’d neither come across this before nor heard of it. So the discovery of this fabulous Czech beer (you can already see where this is going) is thanks to Evan – cheers mate!. This...
Pivovar Kout, Prague
It’s not often I get let out, so when doing so it is always a good idea to make the most of it. Making the most of it this time meant being all the way back in Prague enjoying the finest of Czech Beers. Pivovar Kout is located in Praha-Žižkov, and it was a convenient...
Opat – Kvasnicovy Lezak
Having enjoyed the Opat Bitter a while back, the on-tap Lezak is certainly something I would not be passing up. I hear a lot of mixed things about Opat, and the availabilty does seem to fluctuate; one of the bigger super markets in CZ (I refuse to mention the name because I am boycotting them)...
Zvikovska – Tmava 13°
The last (at least for now) evening out at Pivo Klub; So many new beers to try and so little time. One of the great things about Pivo Klub is the fact that they rotate the draft beers and bring in the kind of beers that you wouldn’t normally find in Prague – the world...
Bohemia Regent – Mary-Jo
Hemp and Hops are related, they are in the same family; this doesn’t necessarily imply that you can always do the same thing with one as you can do with the other, except with hemp you can use it instead of hops. This is precisely what Pivovar Regent have done, they have brewed a beer...
Staropramen – Granat
The big brewer from Prague. I will state here and now that I am not a fan of the brewer nor of any of the brews they produce (yes, I have tried them); however, not everyone in the household shares my militant views on this and a few bottles found their way into the fridge....
Pivovar Nymburk – Bogan
I first tried this beer at a tourist place East of Prague; being somewhat unprepared (the joys of parenthood) I didn’t have the means to write notes about the beer at the time (it was on tap) but I do remember the taste and the name. Not really thinking I would get the opportunity of...
Primator – Exklusiv 16%
Here we go with Primator’s Exklusiv 16% offering. So far I can’t exactly claim to be a fan of Primator although I appreciate what a lot of people see in the brewer I can’t claim to be a fan; at the very least I will concede the point that they have a fabulous range and...
